Villa with gated pool for 8/9 people?

[spinningplateslady]

Hi

My first posting on mumsnet...

I have spent days & days searching online for something suitable...

Ideally we are looking for somewhere other than France (have done this for a few years now, fancy a change). Mallorca, Corsica, Sardinia, Italy????

Need at least 4 bedrooms. We are 4 adults & 5 children under 5...

Any ideas anyone???

Thanks so much

Forgot to mention we are looking for somewhere next summer.

If you are prepared to consider France again, then please see our AD here mumsnet ad.
We rent out our 4 bedroomed, detached villa in the south of France. It is fully secured, with private pool and we are taking bookings for 2008.

The villa I have just returned from in South of France (I realise not you most favoured location) sounds the type of thing. I can highly recommend it.

See the description in the OP of my thread

To add to the description. The villa can be found just outside Valbonne in a small gated community of privately owned villas (around 7 or 8 of them I think). Security generally is very good - it has the metal electric shutters at the windows and the alarm system is monitored by a security firm

I've been keeping this www.holidaylettings.co.uk/rentals/san-gimignano/34501 in my "favouties" list. Haven't been but found it when I was looking this summer.

Try Welcome Cottages or Cottages4You. Have had lovely places with both.

Sorry, missed your heading that said gated pool

This is gated www.mfh.co.uk/PropertyDetails.aspx?PropertyId=134

Try vintage travel, they do various locations in france, all with pools, many gated and most quite large. Also great website with live availability search. We went to majorca with them. It was like your own house but with a pool!They do locations elsewhere too.
